Chapter 3 Operation

OVERVIEW

You can control and configure the NxT1 HSSI/V.35 Module from a variety of sources, including the following:

•The ATLAS 800 Series front panel, providing minimal configuration and status support

•The terminal menus, allowing detailed configuration, status, and diag- nostics

•SNMP, primarily for reporting alarm conditions and system status

The remainder of this section describes the menu items presented when man- aging the NxT1 HSSI/V.35 Module via the terminal menu.

Access the terminal menu using either a VT-100 terminal attached to the ATLAS 800 Series Base Unit’s control port or a Telnet session established through the Base Unit’s Ethernet port. The ATLAS 800 Series User Manual provides detailed instructions on the operation of each of these management approaches.

To edit items in the terminal menu, you must have the appropriate password level. Each menu description in this section indicates the password level required for write and read access. See “Access Passwords” in the appropriate ATLAS 800 Series User Manual for detailed information on working with passwords. Security level 0 users can view and edit every available field. Security level 5 users can view any field but cannot edit.

TERMINAL MENU STRUCTURE

ATLAS 800 Series uses a hierarchical menu structure to provide access to all of its features. The top-most menu level leads to submenus which are grouped by functionality. All menu items display in the terminal window. To access the NxT1 HSSI/V.35 Module, activate the MODULES menu. The fol- lowing sections describe the menu items for the MODULES menu.

Refer to the appropriate ATLAS 800 Series User Manual for detailed instructions on navigating through the terminal menu.
